Idaho State Capitol
The Idaho State Capitol is the government building in Boise where the state legislature meets. It houses the chambers of the House and Senate, along with offices for state officials.
The building was constructed in the early 20th century and has served as the seat of state government since its completion. It was designed in the neoclassical style, reflecting architectural standards for capitol buildings of that era.
Visitors can explore the building during daytime hours and view public areas when the legislature is not in session. Parking is available nearby and the building is easily accessible on foot.
The building features an impressive dome that is visible from inside, allowing views of the architectural details. This central space serves as a quiet spot to appreciate the construction and design of the place.
